Here is a video report on the coming vote today by the Senate Finance Committee on the "Baucus Health Care Bill." The report says Obama views this as an "important step" in the process of getting Health Care Reform, and they are most concerned about getting the vote of Republican Olympia Snowe so they can call it "bipartisan." They seem to believe Snowe is likely to vote in favor of the bill.

Republicans say this bill is "irrelevant," because it is only intended to move the debate to the full Senate where the legislation will change radically, so that the "Baucus bill" is not really what will eventually be put forward.

About Freedom's Lighthouse

Freedom's Lighthouse is dedicated to being a blog of record for the political history of the United States of America. The United States is "Freedom's Lighthouse" in a world where the light of freedom is not found in many places. We will record that history - past and present - with a great emphasis on video, and will also mix in some of the nation's top sports and cultural news. In all we do we will seek to uphold the conservative principles that have made America "Freedom's Lighthouse."
